Short answer: the Sonos Sub Mini, if you are buying new. The Andover Audio SpinSub ranks higher than it (#40 vs #47 of 73 subwoofers, 3.3/5 vs 3.2/5) but is discontinued, so only consider it used; the Sonos Sub Mini is still sold new at $497.
What the Sonos Sub Mini does well: A small, light sealed subwoofer with two 6 inch drivers that adds upper bass support in a modest room. Watch for: Deep-bass output is limited relative to its midbass result, so it is not the right choice for the lowest movie effects.
Why pick the Andover Audio SpinSub: A discontinued compact ported subwoofer with two 6.5 inch drivers, adding bass support without a full size cabinet. The catch: Without a published 20 Hz output result, deep-bass capability is less certain than its midbass figure.
Buy the Sonos Sub Mini if you want one new; the Andover Audio SpinSub is discontinued, so only look for it used.
